Default problem with my Tach?!

when revving my car..the tach will only go to 5 grand...then it bounces back to 1 then back up to 5..this only happens when i use my Jdmshit jumper and a p72 ecu...it does not do this when using the stock p75(ls) ecu...but under 5 grand the tach works fine...............?

usually when aftermarket tachs bounce all over the place, they can be fixed by doing this:

take distributor cap off. find your ignitor. three wires are connected to it. they are usually loose. take them off, put a little dialectric grease on the plugs, put them back on and squeeze them tight with a pair of pliers.

Yeah, check in the distributor... boucing tach is normally a loose or frayed wire... OR a ignitor/ECM kicking out.

Does the car buck at all ? (curious)
